GaryT Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Finished last night with a small pour of Glenmorangie Original. Not sure this will ever be a favorite, but it is starting to grow on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronWF Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Kavalan CS sherry cask. This stuff is DECADENT! A soft, luxurious pillow of cherry cola malt to inspire dreams on a hot, lazy Sunday afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beasled Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 The Glenlivet NÃ durra Oloroso which I picked up on the way to Spain recently. Fruity with a spicy finish. Not bad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinjoe Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 CB Flaming Heart after dinner of a perfectly grilled porterhouse, tomato caprese, corn on the cob, and cukes and sour cream. Teamed up with a Cain F 660. BigRich schooled me, and he's right...scotch is a great pairing with cigars. To glean the nuances of a whiskey and cigar pairing, scotch does trump bourbon, I must admit.

Dolph Lundgren Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Laphroaig 25yr from 2008. Its so hard to pick a winner between this and the 30yr. Honestly, I think I prefer the proof of the 25yr over the age from the 30yr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAINWRIGHT Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 That Lap 25 was pretty amazing stuff I'll have to give you that!I could have kicked back and drank that all night long.Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Finished off a bottle of teelings small batch which I have had a while, the whole time im sipping it thinking "mmm this reminds me of agnostura 1919" then I remembered it was rum cask finished, there is no info I can find on the source of the barrel they used, anyone here tried the teelings and have an oppinion on the rum finish? I dont mind it, its a nice change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont mind it, its a nice change.My understanding from the distributor and other websites is that it is Flor de Caña from Nicaragua which is a solid if unspectacular line of rum to me. It is one of my go to mixer rums for cocktails.http://www.infiniumspirits.com/brands/teeling_whiskey/teeling_whiskey.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Thanks for that. Didnt think of checking their website, Its an interesting whisky and affordable by Australian standards, however after a bottle I am still not sure if I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vosgar Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 While at the Ardbeg Embassy in Stockholm..... The Laphroaig 1989 was supposedly only bottled for the Scandinavian market and was limited to 1800 bottles Also had some 1990 Ardbeg Airigh Nam Beist and a pour direct from this barrel of Ardbeg, amazing whisky! wouldn't fit in my suitcase...... If you ever go to Sweden, this place is well worth the visit. Very knowledgeable staff but damn hard to decide what to drink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BootsOnTheGround Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 A'Bunadh batch 40. Finally put my finger on why this just doesn't do it for me: it tastes like apple cidar vinegar. Think the rest needs to go to the scotch fail bottle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garbanzobean Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Finished off the last bit of my bottle of Glenmorangie Nectar D'Or as well as the last third or so of my bottle of Clynelish 14 with my father in law while watching the consolation game of the World Cup. Probably going to pay for that in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zillah Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Had some Eades Highland Double Malt American Whisky First Edition. A blended malt of 9 yr Ben Nevis and 13 yr Clynelish then finished in port in America. Not officially scotch. Then the usual daily drinker - JW Green.
